I think that’s a feature 😅😅
Just kidding, I had no issue with my photos for example with Photoprism, but for streaming my music with gonic I need to make some modifications for all my album art to show up, and in some cases titles and album names…
It is indeed a great feature but how time-consuming haha :)
I inherited my music collection from my 20 years old limewire addicted self, so it's a complete mess. I'm in the process of completing albums and using Picard to properly tag everything... 20 years of music collection...it'll take me 20 more years!
Anyway, I guess it's a warning for anyone starting to accumulate data: think about metadata, formats and data-management. NOW!
I think life is easier if you stop managing metadata and instead deal in folder structure. My music has never had consistent metadata and tagging, yet it's never been a problem. I use Gonic and just browse my music by folder structure.
These days I try to do both, but recognize it's an on-going thing that will never be done.
Sometimes folder structure can be a challenge because of extensive metadata. Where do parts of a compilation go, for example. At least with metadata, music players can show the tracks correctly.
The main mess is genres. That is non existent in the folder structure (I do have it: artist > albums), and still very hard with Picard etc. But genres is very convenient for Autoplay, auto generate shuffle playlists
